1 Introduction

OutSplice is a package that identifies aberrant splicing events in tumor samples when compared to normal samples using outlier statistics to better characterize sporadic events occurring in heterogenous cancer samples. Events are classified as skipping, insertion, or deletion events. Additionally, outlier expression of each splicing event is called per sample allowing for evaluation of splicing burden of individual samples. This package is specifically designed to analyze RNA sequencing data provided by the user; additional functions have also been added for direct analysis from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Packages in Bioconductor, such as the psichomics package, perform similar analyses on TCGA or user-generated data, however they are not specifically designed to identify cancer specific events. Because of the heterogeneity of tumors in the context of cancer biology, outlier statistics rather than mean comparisons are used to identify aberrant events, where outliers are classified on a per sample basis; this allows the algorithm to discern splicing events with outlier expression that may occur within a subset of tumor samples when compared to normal conditions. Therefore, this package generates a matrix of splicing outliers, which are associated with splice junctions that are either significantly over or under-expressed compared to the distribution of expression in normal tissue. The FRASER package also offers functionality to determine splicing outliers, however, OutSplice utilizes a rank sum outlier approach instead of a beta binomial model. This allows for users to eliminate less biologically relevant events by setting a minimum level of event expression. Additionally, OutSplice has an easy to use work-flow that makes it accessible for researchers of varying experience with bioinformatics tools. With OutSplice, the junction normalization, filtering, outlier calling, and statistical analysis are done in one function call, simplifying this process for the user. OutSplice is also capable of automatically calculating the splicing burden in each of the user’s samples and will provide waterfall plots of expression to help visualize individual splicing events. Overall, this package is novel in that it determines differential splicing burdens between tumors and normal samples and characterizes the nature of splicing outliers in a quick and user friendly fashion.

2.2 Phenotype matrix

If using the outspliceAnalysis function, users must provide a phenotype matrix, designating which samples in the junction file belong to the tumor group (labeled as “T”) and the normal group (labeled as “F”). Please ensure the matrix file contains a header row with the first column designating the sample names, and the second column designating the phenotype. If using TCGA data, the two phenotypes are “tumor” and “normal.” outspliceTCGA can automatically infer the phenotype of TCGA data using the sample names. Only if the phenotype matrix has more than 10 control samples, the program proceeds.

After running outspliceAnalysis or outspliceTCGA, the user can create plots of specified junctions using the plotJunctionData function.

The function plotJunctionData has 1 required input and 10 optional inputs

In the below example we can plot the expression levels for a “skipping” junction event on the ECM1 gene based on our example data from the TCGA.

-normcol: color for normals on graph. Default is blue [OPTIONAL]

3 Methodology

The below sections describe the processes used in the above functions.

3.1 Junction RPM normalization

The program automatically normalizes the junction counts by dividing the junction counts by the total raw counts and then dividing each count by 10^6 to generate RPM junction data.

3.2 OGSA initial filtering

The dotheogsa function from the Bioconductor package OGSA is sourced to remove junctions that may not be biologically relevant due to low expression or that have any difference between tumor and normal. In this package, we set a 0.1 RPM expression threshold for pre-filtering.

3.3 OGSA outlier analysis

The dotheogsa function is again employed to determine splicing events as outliers, which are defined as any normalized junctions that are two standard deviations above or below the median of the normal distribution. A Fisher exact test is used to determine which junctions are significantly over or under expressed in tumors compared to the normal samples.

3.4 Genomic references

The Bioconductor GenomicRanges packages are used to assign each junction to a known gene. The user has the option in the main function to input which genome and its associated Bioconductor packages to use as the reference. These Bioconductor packages should include the genome object, annotations, and transcript annotations.

Ex) For mouse genomes aligned to mm39, install and load: Mus.musculus (genome object), org.Mm.eg.db (annotations), and TxDb.Mmusculus.UCSC.mm39.refGene (transcript annotations) using the library() function. Then, when using the OutSplice functions, specify org.Mm.eg.db for the annotation argument, and TxDb.Mmusculus.UCSC.mm39.refGene for the TxDb argument.

This process will also work for any genome provided the correct annotation package, its corresponding transcript annotation package, and their dependencies from Bioconductor are provided and loaded.

Using this genomic assignment, the dotheogsa function determines insertion, skipping, or deletion events based on the following criteria:

insertion: junction that starts outside a known exon

skipping: junction that skips over a known exon

deletion: junction that is inside a known exon but not as its start or end

3.5 Junction expression normalization

Junction expression is normalized based on its corresponding gene expression from the gene_expr input. This is achieved by dividing the junction RPM data by the normalized gene expression counts from a junction’s corresponding gene. If a junction is aligned to more than one gene, then the gene with the lower entrez id will be the one selected for the normalization.

3.6 Filter by expression via offsets

Offsets, which the user can specify, sets a minimum value relative to the normal samples in order to call a junction an outlier. The goal is to remove data with low expression that may not be biologically relevant. In this example example, an outlier junction must have a normalized expression greater than 0.00001 in order to be called an outlier. Any outliers with expressions below this value are too low to be relevant for the analysis in this example.

3.7 Splice Burden Calculation

Sums the number of splicing events in each sample that were marked as a TRUE outlier for both over-expressed and under-expressed events. The total number of outliers is then calculated as the sum of the over and under-expressed outliers.

3.8 Junction Plotting

Creates bar and waterfall plots of junction expression in both the tumor and normal samples. The data for these plots comes from the raw junction input, the gene expression values to reflect overall gene expression, and the junction expression normalized by gene expression.
